The fur on this mischievous watermelon bear is so real and textured, even down to the color gradient shifting from red to white. This beats any wood carving of a bear that I’ve ever seen.

This alligator head is nearly as scary as the real thing, with piercing eyes, grotesque wrinkles and teeth, and a menacing glare. The fact that it’s just a head makes it even creepier!

Forget a bouquet – this extravagant pink and white carving with wisps of green stems are the definition of the word pretty. Almost better than real roses, dare we say it.
If this watermelon artist didn’t complete his task with an ape nearby, we’re pretty impressed. From the lines in his face to this little dude’s expression, this artist absolutely killed it.

Give this heart covered watermelon work of art to your beloved on Valentine’s Day – at least it’ll be an obvious message, and more original than flowers!

This adorable penguin creation is made mostly carving the skin of the watermelon, whereas a lot work with the pink flesh inside. The portrait of these two penguins sits against a light green palette, and looks like a painting.
